Gronholm Drives 2009 Ford Focus RS

Posted by Chris Auty | Ford |

Here’s the first live footage of the 300bhp 2009 Ford Focus RS in action at the Cardiff Millenium Stadium as part of the Wales Rally GB, with none other than WRC champion Marcus Gronholm behind the wheel.

He was taking part in a parade of Ford Rallye Sport (RS) models of past and present, which included some classics – a 1970’s Mk1 Escort RS, the ’80s Sierra Cosworth and the whale-tailed ’90s Escort RS.

It doesn’t give a brilliant view of the car, but you can tell it looks good in RS blue.
